Can anyone tell me if the Commemorative Air Force’s recent Buchon rebuild (N109ME) has actually flown?
And if anyone has pics of Harold Kindsvater’s N109W, I’d love to see ’em! 🙂

That would be the first MBB Buchon with a ‘Galland’ hood then. Haven’t seen many photos of this one.

Can I get Classic Wings from shops in the UK, or would I need to have it ordered?

And to keep the interest alive, here’s Le Bourget’s machine. Weekend before last, and note, NOT pretending to be a 109 with or without that pesky German engine.
